In the midst of craziness and chaos, some chuckles. As Ashwin says, it’s a tribute to my pun-tastic family.
From xkcd, a webcomic of ‘romance, sarcasm, math and language’. Just up my street. 🙂

brilliant, much appreciated. (but why mussolini?)
@tr: Because that was the great liberal sarcastic joke of the time: “Mussolini may have done many brutal and tyrannical things; he may have destroyed human freedom in Italy; he may have murdered and tortured citizens whose only crime was to oppose Mussolini; but ‘one had to admit’ one thing about the Dictator: he ‘made the trains run on time.'” (Montagu and Darling; from http://www.snopes.com/history/govern/trains.htm)
Btw, there’s been an offline conversation with my uncle that you might further appreciate:
Mamaji> Sage advice: Thyme is a herb.
Me> Sigh; the cartoonist has a parsley cultivated knowledge of these things.
i hadn’t known that — thanks a lot.
i love a bit of herbal sparring. (on the side.)
@tr: no worries. herbal sparring is fun, so long as one doesn’t look for fennel solutions.
yes, that’s a cardamom sin.
…but perhaps we should set up a networking site to discuss this further: MySpice?
